    Default WTB - D15B1 / D15B2 - DPFI DX Civic Motor - Good Condition

    Here goes:

    I'm looking for a D15B2 or D15B1 - that's right, the hated, slow engine that comes stock in 88-91 Civic DX's or STD's. Really, any SOHC OBD-0 Civic engine will work. I know tons of people swap larger or better motors into these cars, so somebody out there has to have one sitting in their garrage taking up space and getting on their nerves.

    I'm buying another EF Sedan. It needs a motor. Here is specifically what I'm looking to get:

    *D15B2 Complete Long Block - No missing sensors, not disassembled. I want block, head, oil pan, internals. I don't need the exhaust or intake manifold, but if you don't feel like taking it off and aren't going to charge me for it, I'll take it.

    *I don't need the transmission.

    *Preferably looking for one that was known to run good before it was removed. I'm talking no smoking, sputtering, erratic idling, or any other problems.

    *Looking for honest seller with good feedback vouches.

    *I'd prefer somewhere close in the southeast where I could drive to pick it up, but if you've got one you're willing to unload for the low low, I'll pay to have it shipped.

    *Feel free to PM, IM, Email, and especially post here if you've got something I'd be interested in.

    Thanks a ton!

    Runs good, no smoke / knocking? If so I'd be happy to come take it off your hands. What all does it have [manifolds / valve cover / etc]? It's still assembled and not missing any sensors or anything is it?

    Im not really sure, I bought it off one of the Moderators on Import Lounge a while back he pulled it from his 90 hatch and was swapping in a GSR motor.

    But he is a trustworthy guy, But I can assure you its not knocking Ive spun it over manytimes, took the oil pan off and inspected the bottem end, and it is tight.

    ITs a Longblock no IM or Dizzy.

    edit:: Oh and I never installed it either, it was going to be a replacement for my DOHC ZC but I never got around to it, but its been kept in a shop also, not in the weather.
